One of the highlights of the Sandman hosting quizzo is that while he a brilliant man, a very good quizzo fill-in, and a great friend, he is, without a doubt, the worst photographer I have ever met in my life. His photos are almost performance art. He certainly didn’t disappoint this week. The Industry pic is a personal favorite.

Question of the Week
This co-founder of National Lampoon and co-writer of Animal House and Caddyshack died when he fell off a cliff on August 27th, 1980 in Kaui. As Harold Ramis famously said, “he probably fell while he was looking for a place to jump”.
Quizzo This Week

Sandman has plenty of experience, so I’m leaving you in good hands. Scroll down for the Question of the week, and here are the time and dates for the quiz this week.
